Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to investigate the association between signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) polymorphisms and autoimmune thyroid diseases and clinical features. We genotyped six single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs1053005, rs2293152, rs744166, rs17593222, rs2291281, and of STAT3 gene in 667 patients with autoimmune thyroid disease (417 Graves' disease (GD) and 250...
